One Voice Choir leaps for Ga. Perimeter College concert
Georgia Perimeter College will host a Leap Day Concert Feb. 29, featuring the One Voice Choir of the Global Village School, which provides teen girls who have survived war and refugee camp experiences with formal educations.
The set list will include the Haka Chin (Burmese) song “Fimnak,” a Chinese Proverb set to music, Woody Guthrie’s “This Land is Your Land,” and original songs like “English is Weird,” by GVS Director and Artist-in-Residence Elise Witt.
The free concert will be held at 1 p.m. on the Clarkston Campus in the Cole Auditorium, 555 North Indian Creek Drive.
